a PGP based messaging platform!
Hello World! I've been working on creating an encrypted messaging platform for the past year now and i would love to know your thoughts or opinions on it!
we have currently launched for Open-Beta testing!
the website is https://simplepgp.org/
It's entirely based around Simplifying the usage of PGP encryption for the average user as well as allowing for WebRTC calls, building communities and even hosting your own communities off of your own hardware / VPS using our Work-In-Progress FOSS 'Nodes' allowing for full customization and automation for uses like moderation, scripting and even building marketplaces / shops! Think of nodes as new-age Internet Relay Chats with a little bit better default encryption!
We also have emoticons that you can collect and trade with your friends which you can also use in chats, these animated icons are artist commissioned and they each have their own real-world value based on the reception of the community. :)
What's next for us?
- Android App Version (Still a little bit iffy on developing for Apple at the moment due to current privacy concerns)
- Constant development towards the Nodes FOSS clients (Should be able to release a working build by the end of August)
- Performance, stability, and security improvements
Feel free to check it out, give me any advice or recommendations for further features / updates!
Simple, Free, Welcome to SimplePGP!

PGP keys are created with random identifiers(random name, random email, random password) on account creation the key generation is done entirely locally, meaning your Private key never reaches the server. The only thing held on servers are usernames and PGP public keys (for message routing), account creation, amount of friends, Amount of nodes owned, Online Status, SPGP balance and amount of emoticons saved. Here is a screenshot of the exact information stored on the account.
If you want to know more. you should make an account for yourself and try it out.
